I’m not missing anything, and if ppl didn’t care about free gear - there would be no posts about free 400 ilvl for Alliance, and how it’s not fair, blah blah, etc…
Different players, different motivations to do stuff, yeah how worrying it must be that Devs are trying to bring them into WM by giving them something that they are interested in… no worries at all, lol
And then they are going to get it again.
Anyway, I don’t want to repeat it all again - in this post you can find all the points about bigger picture - The fun "25 horde gank quest" - #32 by Coolgroove-defias-brotherhood . They all stand, even if I made that post before recent WM changes announcement.
